YANKEE RANT (STAY)

Never got away
Never made it out to California
Guess the weather here ain't killed me yet

Didn't die young
Couldn't stop myself from getting older
Guess I ought to run while I got the legs

But I just stay...

Out here on the right coast
We got a little dirty water
It don’t mean we don’t jump right in

Not trying to boast
We never sweat a power outage
We’re full of hot air, we got thick skin

Think I’ll just stay...

Getting away,
Only for a couple of days
East coast interstate
Taking us back north

Way up in Blue Hill
They got a choir of steel drumming
Man, you’d think it was the carribean

And them green mountain red roads?
That’s life the way it ought to be lived
Nothing prettier than just being there

Think I’ll just stay...
